Hi, new to S3. But did my homework. UMC venture at least worth another 2 dollars/share after tax (tax rate 38%) which gives us a book value of about 7.5 dollars. Microsoft just signed the agreement. Q1. Will that makes SIII chip as the video chip of choice for PC or just brings in additional revenue/profit for the company? Q2. Earnings for the quarter. Yahoo site has an estimate of -0.06 for the quarter. Anyone has any idea about it?

Ski, ATI may know the way, but there's a slump in the market there right now. Heard on NPR this morn that some doctors make @ $50 a month....that's 50 dollars...AND haven't been paid for months. Jerry, If you're talking about Russia I can attest to this personally. Been there twice with a medical group on humanitarian work. In 1995 the going rate for a surgeon was equivalent to about $250 American dollars. Nurses, essentially candy stripers, was about $30. There were NO modern computers in any of the hospitals (aside from the head administrator-that looked to be about a 386 from Mars) I was at including the the main research facility in Moscow.
